'My oldest memory is my ears ringing from the Roker Roar'
Andrew: Growing up in west Cumbria where rugby league ruled, I never really had a football team, but I happened to be a student in Sunderland when they played and won an FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea in 1992. I was at a house party where the majority were listening to the match on the radio. As soon as Gordon Armstrong's header went in the whole place erupted.I've been addicted ever since.

Manchester United want £50million for Chelsea target Alejandro Garnacho
The 21-year-old's future has appeared to be away from Old Trafford since the winger, like his brother Roberto on Instagram, expressed frustration at starting May's Europa League final loss to Tottenham on the bench. United boss Ruben Amorim reportedly told Garnacho in the days after the defeat in Bilbao that he will be allowed to leave and the Argentina international has spent pre-season training away from the first-team. Chelsea were linked with a move in January and are thought to have been in dialogue this summer, with the Red Devils understood to be seeking a £50m fee for the academy graduate. A post shared by Alex Garnacho (@garnacho7) Garnacho was omitted from United's pre-season tour to the United States, where head coach Amorim said last week: 'You can see he's a really talented boy. 'Sometimes things don't work out. You cannot explain specifically what it is, but it's clear that Garnacho wants a different thing with a different leadership. I can understand that. It's not a problem. 'Sometimes (as a player) you adapt to one guy, you have the connection. Other times, you want a new challenge.' Garnacho joined from Atletico Madrid in 2020 and starred in United's 2022 FA Youth Cup win, before scoring in the FA Cup final victory against Manchester City two years later. He has scored 26 goals in 144 first-team appearances.
